INDONESIA.
WE’LL BRING YOU ALL OF THE
DETAILS AS WE GET THEM.
FIRST, THE POLITICIZATION OF
EVERYTHING.
THE POLITICAL ESTABLISHMENT HAS
DECIDED THEIR BEST BET TO STAY
IN POWER IS TO KEEP YOU IN A
PERPETUAL STATE OF POLITICAL
OUTRAGE.
NOW, THERE IS VIRTUALLY NO FACET
OF AMERICAN LIFE IMMUNE FROM
POLITICS AND PARTISANSHIP.
IT’S IN A TINY EXAMPLE OF WHAT I
MEAN.
SOME FRIENDS INVITED MY WIFE AND
I TO THE ESSENCE FESTIVAL
CONCERT LAST SATURDAY NIGHT AT
THE SUPERDOME IN NEW ORLEANS.
IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN A FUN TIME.
50,000 PEOPLE THERE TO SEE JANET
JACKSON PATTI LaBELLE.
JUST BEFORE THE HEADLINERS TOOK
THE STAGE, THIS WELL-KNOWN
WARM-UP ACT WANDERED OUT.
>> WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF A
CRITICAL TIME.
THEY ARE TRYING TO TAKE WOMEN’S
RIGHT TO CHOOSE.
THEY ARE TRYING TO TAKE VOTING
RIGHTS.
>> Raymond: THE REVEREND MAY
HAVE GONE -- MAY HAVE WELL IS
GONE TO A CHUMP RALLY. NOBODY WANTED
TO HEAR THAT POLITICAL MESSAGE.
AT THAT POINT MISS JACKSON HIT
THE STAGE.
NO.
>> HELLO, ESSENCE FESTIVAL, THIS
NOVEMBER WE WILL BE ELECTING
FOLKS WHO MAKE CRITICAL
DECISIONS IN OUR COMMUNITY.
DECISIONS ABOUT OUR HEALTH CARE,
VERY PERSONAL DECISIONS WE MAKE
ABOUT OUR BODIES.
STAY ON WITH BLACK APPROVAL OF
THE PRESIDENT BIDEN BELOW 50%
ACCORDING TO A NEW QUINNIPIAC
POLL, THE ADMINISTRATION IS
DOING ALL THEY CAN TO ENGAGE
AFRICAN AMERICAN MOTOR SO
KAMALA HARRIS ALSO DID IN
ESSENCE DRIVE BY.
>> THOSE THAT MIGHT BE
VULNERABLE THAT WE HAVE THE
RIGHTS THAT WAS SETTLED LAW
INCLUDING ISSUES LIKE
CONTRACEPTION, ISSUES LIKE
SAME-SEX MARRIAGE.
THIS STATEMENT HAS BEEN MADE OF
THE GOVERNMENT HAS A RIGHT TO
COME IN YOUR HOME AND TELL YOU
IS A WOMAN AND AS A FAMILY WHAT
YOU SHOULD DO WITH YOUR BODY.
>> Raymond: THIS IS
FOOLISHNESS.
ISN’T SHE PART OF THE
GOVERNMENT?
THE VP’S PARTY CONTROLS ALL
THREE BRANCHES SO WHO EXACTLY IS
COMING INTO YOUR HOME TO TELL
YOU WHAT TO DO WITH YOUR BODY?
MAYBE THAT’S WHY HUNTER BIDEN
WAS PROWLING AROUND THE
WHITE HOUSE THIS WEEK.
THEY FINALLY FOUND A JOB HE IS
WELL TRAINED FOR.
BEDROOM FIRST RESPONDER.
THERE ARE REAL-WORLD
CONSEQUENCES FOR POLITICAL
DISINFORMATION LIKE THAT.
STOKING ANGER, LYING TO CITIZENS
ABOUT THE SUPREME COURT RULING
WHICH MERELY RETURNED ABORTION
RIGHTS TO THE STATES TO DECIDE.
ALL OF THIS DEMONIZATION HAS AN
IMPACT.
THE SAME WEEK THAT REVEREND AL
AND VP HARRIS VISITED
NEW ORLEANS AT A CATHOLIC CHURCH
A FEW MILES AWAY, THIS HAPPENED.
THE ANGLE EXCLUSIVELY OBTAINED
THIS SECURITY FOOTAGE.
MASK THUGS TOPPLED A PRO-LIFE
STATUE OF THE VIRGIN MARY AND
THEN STOLE IT.
ANOTHER STATUE HAS BEEN STOLEN
AND TO OTHERS TOPPLED ALL OF THE
SAME CHURCH.
FOUR CHURCHES IN WISCONSIN
CHIPPEWA COUNTY WERE ALSO
VANDALIZED LAST WEEK.
COINCIDENCE?
I DON’T THINK SO.
LISTEN TO THE RHETORIC THE
PRESIDENT USED TWO DESCRIBE A
COEQUAL BRANCH OF GOVERNMENT,
THE SUPREME COURT, TODAY.
>> WHAT WE ARE WITNESSING WASN’T
A CONSTITUTIONAL JUDGMENT.
IT WAS AN EXERCISE IN RAW
POLITICAL POWER.
WE CANNOT ALLOW AN
OUT-OF-CONTROL SUPREME COURT
WORKING IN CONJUNCTION OF
EXTREMIST ELEMENTS IN THE
REPUBLICAN PARTY DID TAKE AWAY
FREEDOMS AND OUR PERSONAL
AUTONOMY.
CONSIDER IT A CHALLENGE
ACCEPTED, COURT.
>> Raymond: THE DEHUMANIZATION
OF THE COURT AS EXTREMISTS,
OUT-OF-CONTROL GROUP OF JUSTICES
TAKING AWAY YOUR RIGHTS, THIS
CONVEYS A CLEAR MESSAGE TO
FRINGE ELEMENTS OF AMERICAN
SOCIETY.
MAINLY IT’S OKAY TO TARGET
JUSTICES.
IT’S NO WONDER THE JUSTICES
HOMES HAVE BECOME PROTEST
MAGNETS.
JUSTICE KAVANAUGH WAS THREATENED
WITH ASSASSINATION EDGE OF THE
OTHER NIGHT HE WAS DRIVEN FROM A
D.C. RESTAURANT BY PROTESTERS.
IN OHIO, MOTIVATED BY THE ROE
RULING, HUMAN FECES WAS MAILED
TO THE MEMBERS OF THEIR
STATEHOUSE.
THANKFULLY IT WAS INTERCEPTED BY
THE POST OFFICE.
THE HYPER PARTISANSHIP,
INCITEMENT AND ACCEPTANCE OF
VIOLENCE OVER DISPLEASURE IS AN
AMERICAN EPIDEMIC.
THIS IS FOOTAGE FROM A
NEW YORK CITY RESTAURANT.
WHEN PATRONS WERE TOLD THERE WAS
AN ADDITIONAL CHARGE FOR DIPPING SAUCE, THEY RAMPAGED.
SAUCE, THEY RAMPAGED.
[ALARM BLARING]
PITIABLE.
ANY GRIEVANCE AT ALL IS NO CAUSE
FOR LOCKING TRAFFIC, ATTACKING
LAW ENFORCEMENT, EVEN THE
MUSEUMS ARE NO LONGER IMMUNE
FROM POLITICS.
AT BRITISH MUSEUMS THIS WEEK,
ANTI-OIL PROTESTERS GLUED
THEMSELVES TO THE FRAMES OF
MASTERPIECES.
IN THE U.S., ACTORS HAVE TAKEN
TO GLUING THEMSELVES TO COFFEE
SHOP COUNTERS AS A MEANS OF
PROTEST.
I ASKED PEOPLE ON THE STREET
WITH THE THOUGHT OF THESE
ANTICS.
>> WE ARE ALSO SEEING THE
DESTRUCTION OF SACRED ART,
RELIGIOUS STATUES AS A REACTION
TO THE ROE V. WADE RULING.
IS THAT APPROPRIATE?
>> NO.
I DON’T THINK DESTRUCTION OF
PROPERTY IS APPROPRIATE.
>> I DON’T THINK ACTS OF
VANDALISM, WHICH IT IS, WHICH
ARE AGAINST THE LAW, ARE THE
RIGHT WAY TO GO ABOUT THINGS.
THERE SHOULD BE CONSEQUENCES FOR
YOUR ACTIONS, AS THERE ALWAYS
ARE.
>> NO, I DON’T THINK SO.
I THINK THERE’S OTHER WAYS OF
SHOWING THEIR FEELINGS THAN
PROTESTING.
IN NATIONAL GALLERIES.
THEY SHOULDN’T DO THAT.
>> Raymond: GLUING THEMSELVES
TO GREAT WORKS OF ART.
>> LEAVE THEM THERE.
>> Raymond: LEAVE THEM GLUED
TO THE FRAMES.
THEY WILL BE HUNGRY AND THEN
SOMETHING HAS GOT TO HAPPEN.
>> Raymond: PEOPLE NO MATTER
THEIR POLITICAL PERSUASION, THEY
DON’T LIKE ANARCHY.
THEY DON’T WANT TO SEE THE
DISRUPTION AND DESTRUCTION OF
AMERICAN LIFE IN THE NAME OF
POLITICS.
NEXT TIME THESE POLITICIANS
CRASHED INTO A CULTURAL EVENT, A
SPORTS OR ENTERTAINMENT VENUE,
AND PEBBLE THIS KIND OF DIVISIVE
VITRIOL, WE NEED TO WALK OUT AND
COMPLAIN.
THERE MUST BE SPACES IN AMERICAN
LIFE FREE OF POLITICAL COMBAT
AND DIVISION.
PLACES WHERE WE CAN ENJOY EACH
OTHER AS NEIGHBORS AND FRIENDS
AND CITIZENS.
THE CONTINUED PARTISAN
DEMONIZATION OF PEOPLE WILL ONLY
STRAIN OUR BONDS OF UNITY AND
